Surgical wart removal in Wrocław

Warts are small, usually painless skin lesions that most often appear on the hands and feet, although they can occur on any part of the body. Infection occurs through contact with the human papillomavirus (HPV), which leads to excessive growth of skin cells at the site of infection. Although warts are generally benign lesions, they can cause aesthetic discomfort, pain and inflammation. In addition, some types of warts can spread to other parts of the body or be passed on to other people. That is why it is important to consult a doctor and decide on their removal. Professional surgical wart removal is one of the most effective ways of dealing with this problem.

Indications for wart removal

Aesthetic discomfort

Warts, especially those on visible parts of the body, can cause considerable dissatisfaction and have a negative effect on the patient's self-esteem.

Physical discomfort

Warts located on the feet in particular, known as verrucas, can be painful and cause discomfort when walking.

Spreading warts

If warts begin to spread to other parts of the body or to infect other people, their removal is recommended.

Warts that do not respond to treatment

Some warts may be resistant to home or pharmacological treatment, and in such cases surgical removal is usually recommended.

Risk of complications

In some cases, warts, especially genital warts, may increase the risk of more serious complications, such as cervical cancer.

Warts that cause psychological discomfort

Some people may experience anxiety or stress related to the presence of warts, which can also be an indication for their removal.

Warts that bleed or are irritated

Warts that bleed frequently, are irritated or cause pain should be removed.

Where do warts on the body come from?

Warts on the body are the result of infection with the human papillomavirus (HPV). Infection most often occurs through direct contact with the skin of an infected person, but it can also spread through contact with objects that have been touched by an infected person. HPV infection often leads to the development of warts several weeks or even months after exposure to the virus.

It should be noted that HPV is particularly active in damp, warm places such as swimming pools and gyms, and also where the skin is cut or damaged. This is why infections on the feet (verrucas) are so common.

Warts are often confused with other skin lesions, such as fibromas. Fibromas are soft, flexible bumps that develop from skin cells and not as a result of HPV infection. They are benign lesions and are usually not associated with any inflammation.

Verruca removal

Verruca removal is one of the key procedures in dermatology and podiatry. Verrucas, like other warts, are the result of infection with the human papillomavirus (HPV) and often appear on the soles of the feet, which is why they are often called foot warts. Because of where they appear, verrucas can be very inconvenient and even cause pain when moving.

Verruca removal can be carried out using various techniques, such as cryotherapy, laser therapy or surgical methods. The choice of method depends on many factors, including the size and extent of the lesions, as well as the patient's individual preferences. After a verruca has been removed, it is important to follow the doctor's instructions to ensure proper healing and minimise the risk of recurrence.

What are viral warts and what are the indications for their removal?

Viral warts are small, harmless skin lesions caused by the human papillomavirus, also known as HPV. They are most often located on the hands and feet, but can occur on any part of the body. Although warts are usually painless, they can sometimes cause pain or inflammation.

At MM Clinic in Wrocław, viral wart removal is a procedure performed by a doctor who will carefully assess each lesion during the consultation. Our clinic uses modern laser technology to remove lesions. Laser wart removal is a completely safe method that minimises the risk of infection.

What types of warts are there and are they dangerous?

Warts are generally benign skin lesions, but they should always be assessed by a doctor because of the possibility of developing into pathological conditions. There are several types of warts, which differ in appearance and location:

Common warts

These are the most common warts; they usually appear on the hands, but can occur on any part of the body. They are small, hard and have an uneven surface.

Flat warts

They are smaller and smooth, and most often appear on the face, arms and legs. These warts typically occur in children and adolescents.

Filiform warts

They most often occur on the face, especially around the mouth and eyelids. They take the form of long, thin projections.

Foot warts (verrucas)

They are hard lumps, usually on the soles of the feet, which can cause pain when walking.

Genital warts (condylomata acuminata)

These are sexually transmitted warts that occur on the genitals. They may increase the risk of cervical cancer in women.

Most warts are not dangerous, but they can be bothersome and cause discomfort. Some warts, especially those on the feet and hands, can spread to other parts of the body and infect other people. In addition, viral warts may increase the risk of certain types of cancer, which is why any skin lesion should be checked by a doctor.

Surgical wart removal in Wrocław – what does the procedure involve?

Before the procedure, the doctor performing it takes a detailed medical history from the patient and assesses the size of the lesions. The doctor will discuss all available wart removal methods with the patient, such as laser therapy or surgical removal.

The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia, which keeps the patient comfortable during the procedure. The procedure itself takes from a few minutes to around a quarter of an hour, depending on the extent and size of the lesions. After the procedure, a dressing is applied to the site, which the patient changes every few days.

Guidelines after the procedure

After the procedure, the doctor instructs the patient on how to care for the wound properly and avoid infection. It is recommended to avoid intense physical exercise and the sauna for several days after the procedure. Patients are required to attend regular follow-up visits, which allow the healing process to be assessed.

The healing time depends on the size and extent of the lesions. Small warts and verrucas usually heal within 1-2 weeks, while larger lesions may take several weeks to heal fully. A further procedure may be needed to remove the lesions completely.
